Notice Title

1862 RfQ for provision of Gambian Technical Training Institute Quality Assurance Services

Notice Description

The university is delivering a programme of support to the Gambian Technical Training Institute (GTTI) as it transforms into the University of Science, Engineering, and Technology (USET) in the Gambia. The Gambia USET project is a World Bank funded project that DMU is contracted to deliver. It is a time-bound project with specific objectives, milestones and deliverables. The nature of the workstreams are such that different amounts of time input are required at different stages of the project, therefore not lending itself to recruitment of a fixed term, fixed hours appointment. One of the work streams relates to quality assurance: the DMU quality team does not have the capacity to undertake this additional piece of work, therefore we need to engage the services of a competent Quality Assurance consultant to complete it. All other information relating to Award Criteria, evaluation and the full specification of requirement can be found within our RfQ pack for this procurement loaded on the In-Tend e tendering portal: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/demontfort/aspx/Home Additional information: Is a Recurrent Procurement Type? : No
